Smoked aftermarket Vs Clear OEM cefiro headlights

I need a set of cefiro headlights for my 97 I30t. Anyone compare beam patterns between the Oem clear units vs the smoked aftermarket? Any other differences?

I have not seen the smoked aftermarket ones. Where can you get those?

Sorry, I know I didn't really help you with your question, but i am on the same search for headlights.

Keep me posted how it goes please.

The beam pattern shouldn't be any different. The reflectors haven't been altered in any way, only the plastic surrounding the reflectors has been painted.

I would go with the smoked version, I wish they had those back when I bought mine.

I heard that the beam pattern isn't quite as nice with the smoked ones since they aren't OEM, and OEM's are just better made. I don't have evidence or anything, but when I trade my OEMs for the smoked ones I can post results up.
